No PH-BN pact for Melaka polls, says Khalid
The Amanah communications director says, for now, the coalition is open to working with any other party except BN and PN.
Pakatan Harapan (PH) will not form a pact with Barisan Nasional (BN) for the upcoming Melaka state election, according to Amanah communications director Khalid Samad. The coalition is prepared to collaborate with any party other than BN and Perikatan Nasional (PN). In a statement to Berita Harian, Khalid made it clear that PH will contest the elections based on its own principles, insisting that they would not accept an invitation to work with BN.
If BN were to consider partnering with PN, that decision would be theirs alone. These remarks followed a closed-door meeting between Melaka Bersatu and PH leaders in Melaka, attended by representatives from Bersatu, PH, and other parties. While PH communications director Fahmi Fadzil acknowledged the meeting, he downplayed the significance, stating that PH's presidential council would make the final decision on any political alliance for the Melaka polls.
